Lance – I think you’re dead on. Poor guy doesn’t know what he’s doing. Normally, I have just helped him out and called … but like you said, the connection is tenuous.

Lara – you are such a stalker! Kidding. Of course, it’s okay – just don’t pass it on to anyone else in the office or I’ll dump hot coffee on your head. : )

DH – I texted him back b/c this is actually kind of funny at this point – or some kind of sick experiment.

I use texting primarily as a flirting tool…it works best if you’ve established a good connection and you want to do a bit of flirting during the week. Like say if you meet someone on a Saturday, you can text/flirt during the week and set something up for next Friday. This maintains the connection and keeps the other person thinking about you. Beyond that, texting sucks. Make calls.

For your text guy, it sounds like he doesn’t know what he’s doing. He’s should know his connection with you is tenuous and he needs to do a bit more work (via phone) to establish his cred if he’s looking for a date.

Hey! I hope it’s okay that I found your blog. I’m also following you on Twitter. Hope that doesn’t make me a stalker, LOL. Awesome blog! I am so envious — mine is really lame and noob-ish by comparison. But I’d love your thoughts and feedback, it’s only the start and I can only get better.

Can’t wait to hear more about the Denmark dude and again, loving your blog!

Well, asking a woman out via text message is lame, but its the technology age. I’ve had nieces get broken up with via text message.

Yes, sometimes there is just something quick you want to say that doesn’t require a phone call, or you aren’t in a place that you can talk on the phone…but how lame and disconnected are we becoming.

I once chatted with a guy online. I type 100 WPM, but I don’t expect others to type that fast…but I’d reply and 10 minutes would go by before he’d reply back. Either he’s really slow, talking to other people at the same time and got distracted…either way, if the online chatting was that bad (his dialogue was even worse, btw) then he’s not going to get my phone number, much less a date.

You texted him back? WTF! I thought you’d written him off.

I think it’s totally lame that this guy is moving so slow with you. I’d knock your door down if I was 10 years younger and knew where you lived! Well, I might try ringing the doorbell first.

Hold the phone. A “handsome house guest” from Denmark? Who is this guy?… It’s like watching the trailer of a new romance movie, and it gets cut in the middle. Who is this fellow? How do you know him?

Inquiring minds want to know! Oooooh.
